Programs a Big Hit at Rice Lake Library

Link to The Chronotype (Rice Lake Online) article, "Libraries work to match rising popularity".

Excerpt:
Puppet shows, flamenco dancers, story times, theater groups and a kids' rock band.

They are just a few of the programs area libraries have planned as special events in the coming months to keep children and adults alike entertained.

Library programs have exploded in popularity in recent years.

Area librarians suspect part of the reason for the growth is the downturn in the economy.

"They're free and something the whole family can come to," Carla Powers said of library programs. Powers is the director of Rice Lake Public Library.
